LIVE- UCSB Women's Basketball vs UC Irvine

At 7:00pm on Thursday, January 12th, the UCSB Women’s Basketball team hosts UC Irvine in their first home game of 2012. The Gauchos currently hold the upper hand in this Big West matchup as they have beaten the Anteaters 10 times in a row, dating back to 2006. The Anteaters, though, are not coming into this game empty handed. They are lead by senior guard Kassandra MaCalister who leads the team with 10.6 points per game and junior guard Anete Klintstone who has averaged 12.8 points per conference game. This will be the Gauchos’ first game at the Thunderdome since December 16th of last year. Since then, they split their 4 game road trip and are now 1-1 in conference play. The Big West season is still young and both of these teams are playing for early dominance.
